Bookie taking no chances with boom horse

He was elevated to the top of the market for the Caulfield Guineas (1600m) and Sportsbet.com.au are taking no chances with exciting prospect Royal Symphony in the Taj Rossi Series Final (1600m) this Saturday at Flemington.

The Tony McEvoy trained youngster created quite the impression over 1400m at HQ a fortnight back, sweeping home from last to win by a space without being fully extended. He is expected to do something similar which is why he has opened $1.50 and has shortened into $1.40 with the scratching of Mulk.

He absolutely stifles betting, with the only other runner under $10 being Evil Cry at $6.50. The only firmer in the race has been Madame Moustache, who got to $20 from $23 but is at $21.
